Hmm, true. You might be able to emulate the functionality by using prop=info on the user's talk page (and perhaps storing the last time the user visited the page in a cookie). (Ps. It strikes me that the simplest and most efficient way to implement cross-wiki user talk notifications would be as a MediaWiki extension. Why do we not have one already?) -- Ilmari Karonen _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
